Mr. July: Bill Moseley

Bill Moseley is probably best known for his portrayal of Chop Top in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre II, Tobe Hooper’s 1980’s sequel to his 70’s shocker flick. Bill has also been scary in the 1988 version of The Blob, Vicious, Silent Night, Deadly Night 3, and The Convent. He led an army of the dead in Sam Raimi’s Army of Darkness, and he blew everyone away as Johnny in Tom Savini’s 1990 revisioning of Romero’s original Night of the Living Dead. After starring in House of 1000 Corpses in 2003, he reprised his role as Otis Firefly in the sequel, The Devil’s Rejects, out on July 22nd. Bill also produces; keep an eye out for The Forest Primevil, directed by Tom Savini later this year, and catch him on TV’s Carnivale playing “Possum”. Did I happen to mention that Bill has a band called Cornbugs, with ex Guns N’ Roses guitarist Buckethead? Did I happen to mention that the lyrics are shocking and fun?. Meet Bill Moseley, proud father of baby Marion and horror actor who can actually act; our Mr. July….
